I will be in the USA on the 31st for three weeks. Part of this is to take time off, get re-acquainted with the USA (haven't been back in ages), visit tooling and equipment manufacturers and put in purchasing orders, meet with current suppliers and to just travel around without having to look at a watch. I wanna see what all the hype is about with some of the things I've been seeing and hearing about in our community. If you would like me to visit with you, I will be in NY, North Carolina and in California.

Thanks for your time and Merry Christmas!

What part of North Carolina?

04 F-250, 7,500 pound whistlin water buffalo

Jacksonville. I will be there to visit my daughter and other family. Will do some business in the North Carolina and South Carolina area. Yes, NASCAR fabricators- we can all learn something from them guys!

From what I told you before, it'll be this spring. The sooner we get the mandrel bender in place (shooting for Feb), we will get to work. I have to dismantle the VG240 because for 1 solid month, it was being put through the paces every night. The only things that broke were the steering rack and both front wheel bearings. I suspect the bearings were already toast, so drifting and running on 350Z wheels finally killed them. Once I have everything apart, I wanna get them dye penetrant checked for stress cracks in all the welds and other significant stress areas. My gut feeling is the subframe and other items are fine, but I cannot and will not release anything for someone until that check has been made and a clean bill of health is observed.

The subframe will come with me to North Carolina (Mooresville) for check up and to learn their stress check techniques and get better weld tips.

Plus she'd probably start bitching and crying about how "I wanted you to put it in my *****, THEN my ***, THEN my mouth! You ruined everything! My life is over!" I wouldn't want to deal with that ****.

Utter disappointment? It's gonna happen because I am moving everything to North Carolina. Being in Bahrain is great, but when I can count every S13 and S14 driver on my fingers and toes that lives out here, well, do the math. My support base and people who know me are in North America, Europe and Australia, with the majority being in North America, and because of the myriad of reasons, this is why this move is gonna happen. I found too many reasons to make the move and not too many reasons not to. Besides the business, the scene and the happenings with East Coast drifting and import car scenes of all makes.

The kit- YES, this kit is going to be the first on my list to get produced and made available. Whether you come to Jacksonville, NC to see us and have us do your complete swap or we send it to you, it's going to get out there.

A lot of folks have written regarding VG30ET from the Z31. This kit will work for it, as well. It's actually a lot easier, since the VG30ET is a smaller engine and is less complicated to deal with.

You should ask the same place that would supply your SR motor. for the most part they should be able to get you one by the time you get the kit

Also can you send me an E-mail with the videos ( if there ready) to ben_cork@hotmail.com

ALso you mentioned this Spring. Is that meaning youll have a date this spring or it will be released this spring?

Thanks.

No hard date yet because I have upgraded and moved away from the modified stock subframe and will be making it from tube stock.

Wrong, VG is iron to.

I'm studying the wiring for S13, S14 for North America, UK, Europe and Asia and I am talking with a wiring company to do the custom harnesses for the dash and for power and all of the stuff that anybody would need to do this swap. Great stuff takes time, and I'm not gonna rush anything I put out there. The last thing I want is to be known for crappy products that don't work. I may be slow, but at least in the end, I can say I did it right. That goes for the hard stuff , as well. If anybody ends up with the kit from me, they will thank me for taking my time because this swap went from a challenge, to a working example, to almost being released as is, and now to refinement and copyright.

Let it be known that I am doing this all by myself, and I do not have some gigantic research lab and a clock that warps time. Just a small place, good friends, equipment, a main job to fuel all of this stuff plus my own projects and an end goal. If people are disappointed with me, and yeah, it's my fault for being too promising initially, I apologize. As I said in a few posts ago, I have a client that is gonna be here this month with his 240SX, and we will go from there. I'm not gonna rush for any money or promises of fame. That's for amateurs.

as soon as you release this kit, and i mean AS SOON AS you release it, you will be recieving an order.

i've been wanting to swap a VG30 into my S14, but was unsure of whether i should go for it because of the risk of having to fabricate when i've got no fabrication skills.

if there's a kit, however, that's much different.

now i drive a 5-speed S14 with a short shifter and a shift knob in it.

other mods come later. i'm still saving money up since i just bought a car.

videos yet??

Sorry. None to be had. I was promised videos and told of videos, but nothing. I'm starting all over again with this whole affair. Just goes to show one if one wants something done, one does it oneself.

The VG240 has been out of service for a few months, and needs to have maintenance done. We have a drift contest a few days after F1 next month, and I'll make sure I get video of it. Salah has been concentrating on his Mustang, Caterham racing and Mini Cooper Cup racing, and I've been heavily wrapped up with my 180SX (swapped out the CA20DET and put in a zenki S14 SR20DET; daily driver use; tired of driving a Corolla), 200SX project and doing R&D for my line of coilover systems under my MAYHEM line (no, I did not make these; I have a professional dampener/suspension company making them for me; releasing these soon).
